001Sorry. No, that's okay. Okay, we're now recording. So, anyway, my question was just we just are we just putting in the bill kind of for that or do other do they pay an entry fee to come to that track meet like when we go to others too? So, other teams actually pay a B2B here. So, >> yeah. >> Okay, that's my only question. >> Anybody receipt. So parts I did notice on PE cards we haven't this has been going on for a while but a couple of them were bigger this time charges for meals at restaurants like $900 and some dollars at Olive Garden and Moose Jaw pizza place for $300 $400. My only question is do those come out of activity fund things? Okay. >> Yeah. Pretty sure we keep that. >> Yep. Yep.
002Those all come out of activity fund. A lot of the times it's like end of year um party celebration. >> Yeah. And they're pretty constant throughout the year, but end of seasons happen. >> But yes, those are all out of the respective activity fun clubs. >> Yep. And then the other one was Eric Wiggle on G-cards that a books thing was there some issue with his card or something or that just it was just weird. Get to the end of usually anything has like a whole page of things. >> It looks like it was ordered and charged tax so that they refunded everything and had to recharge it to get rid of the tax and see a lot his his statement was very long and he typically never has a >> I've never seen Eric's
003name on there. I know. I still know that's why it's >> so anybody have any other problem? >> I think if I remember right, he told me he ordered there were like two companies and they had like on Amazon but they had it on another site and the sites didn't connect. So he ordered the books and then they went to sell them and the other site had already sold them and so then it was like this fiasco of back and forth from books and they would also buy back. >> Yeah. Can't remember but it was something he had said that it was kind of a fiasco. >> I think Amazon actually owns them now. So it's kind of weird. >> All right. Um if no other questions can get a motion to approve the expense
004vouchers and receives. >> Make that motion. >> Thanks very much. I'll second it. >> We have our motion by Rich and second by Earl. Usually do roll call for this or do >> James. >> Yes. >> Wallace. >> Yes. >> Ashley White. >> All right. So, we go to the consent agenda. Minutes from our last meeting, May 13th. It was ground speification meeting that same night. Permission to seek bids for snow plowing, sanding, snow removal, bread, milk, or the 2627 school year, 2627 senior high membership, uh in WIAA renewal, summer high school basketball trip, and we move district fees. And then the donations include 3,000 from an anonymous donor for the outdoor xylophone and 10,000 for from an anonymous for music department. I want to see that outdoor xylophone. I know it'll be really >>
005questions on any of those. Do you have a motion to approve? >> I'll make a motion to approve the consent agenda. >> I'll second. >> Okay. So, motion by all seconded by Ashley. All in favor signify by saying I opposed. Motion passes. All right. On to action agenda for the 15. Academic and career planning notice. Somebody want to talk about that at all? I see we had it passed. >> Yeah, it's a notice we need to post and so we will now have it annually and update the information on it which will continually be changing but um I don't know if it was a new thing per se. >> It's been there for a few years. Yeah, I remember the first year it came a couple I think >> August and then >> so just
006making sure we're updating that and have everything prepared and try to have it ready to go so kids and everyone are aware of things. So >> we have to have so many things posted in >> we have to have them posted. >> Yeah. Yeah. Do we have a motion to approve? I mean, if anybody has questions on it, of course. But >> So, who puts this together? Is that Angie? >> Yeah, >> she I actually did the initial one that we had and then she we've updated and she's she's added things from there. So, the latest one she updated everything. Yes, >> I do have a motion to approve this academic and career planning notice for 2627. >> I can make that motion. Have a second. I'll second. So motion by second by Ashley to
007approve. All in favor signifies. I >> Okay, on to several items from buildings and practiced purchase and trade in. You guys talked about that last one and not some of them seem pretty familiar. Yeah, I think those this was in the committee the one that was uh >> That's right. This was the best option. >> Yeah, we didn't have time to get it on that meeting. So, >> told them to check and we see if they can get it delivered yet this month. So it goes into this year's expense than that. So evidently that's >> and it was a cheaper of a >> of the one that we had. >> What are the thoughts from the I guess the email today in regard to we had a we had the trade in value but we
008had a community member who had reached out to Troy a day ago. >> I responded and told him we need to take bits. >> Okay. We can't we can't just offer to somebody, >> right? That's what I mean. But I guess >> buy it first. >> Somebody offered. So then >> buy it with the trade in all. >> So then the question to the committee was >> have to put it out there. >> Do we do that the whole thing which we would have to do or do we just go with the Did you get the last one back that they changed the um sale price $1,200 less? >> No, I didn't. So I I didn't look at today. So they >> so they were going to give us 7500 for trade >> and then
009so Troy called today to find out if we didn't trade would that change the sale price because we didn't know how that would work. So that actually if we did not trade would decrease the sale price $1,200. So I guess that's the question that we kind of are at. or do we mess around to put it out or do we just take the trade in value as it is and move forward? >> I I wouldn't mess around with it after we bid it and stuff. I I don't know. >> After it's this far. Yeah. >> If so, whoever wants it, they can go up there and then they're going to pay probably more to get neighbors than that. >> Yeah, I got that from the school cuz they were going to trade them in. I
010just told them whatever I posted the wrong person then that doesn't make us look very good either. >> That was kind of bit of the cut was, you know, just something goes bad or goes wrong or whatever, you know, it's >> Yeah. >> said it was good. Hey, what happened here? Huh? >> Yeah. >> All right, that's easy enough. >> Yeah. >> And it stays within all the to be safe. >> They'll try to get it ordered then. If we get a motion for that, >> I'll make a motion to purchase the John Deere Park. >> Yeah, that's >> I guess I second. Um, so all in favor of Let's see which one we here. This is the John Deere from Tractor Central at a cost of >> 83.99. >> Yeah. All in favor signify
011by saying I. I. >> Opposed. Um, we're going to go on to a couple more of these items and I know they're all the things that Troy worked on and they're all the same area as far as out of the budget. All of this stuff is in this year's Arrow made reference to this. This is in this year's budget. Are all of these things this year's budget? That's what I thought. And now, how does that work? Do they have to be here? and things have that's what I thought we were always told before >> and be here by the year end of June I thought so >> the only one that could cause issues is the dirt monkey one because I don't think they'd be able to start and finish the project this year so
012that one would probably float to next year but knowing it I can add it in to the budget for next year >> okay but but the money can can you like I don't know how you do that but carried over. >> Is he going to fit it into next year's budget? Yeah. Is there a way to >> like do an adjustment or something to get it there? >> Yes. Yes. We There's still very >> Okay. >> Yeah. And and I'll go into more of that when I pursue the budget, but right now it's a very preliminary budget because there's still so many >> other. Okay. So, we got the John Deere tractor taken care of. So on to Dirt Monkey for baseball and softball fields it says. >> And I think you had three or
013four bids on if I remember right. >> Yeah. >> Several. >> And this is the one that >> we were just waiting to confirm that it was everything >> detailed that they detailed. They just gave us a total give us a wide range and there was >> there was lower there was higher, right? But this was the one the most economic and it was just written in an email. So he had requested that it be >> and it's all he's done it before right >> where some of it was lower hadn't really done it before and >> I mean this will be all done with laser and that way Troy talked to that so >> and some cash in so it's not that far away from so >> all right so the bid is $16,300
014from dirt monkey that includes both the baseball field and the softball field work. Motion to approve that. >> I'll make that motion. >> Second. >> Motion by seconded by Rich. All in favor signify by saying I. >> Opposed. Passes. Okay. Turn page two. Man football sled. Oh no. There was something that sat out in the weeds out there for years. I can't. Yeah, but I think that was either a six or eight. >> Oh, yeah. When you only have a seven man team. >> I think it was more blockers. >> Probably the one that I used back in the day. So, >> might have been. >> I'm pretty sure it probably was. I don't think I've ever seen an agenda before. So, >> the way he described the old one, I think it probably was.
015>> I'm sure it is. >> So, since I'm talking budget tonight, this one is $6,500. Where does that fit in? I mean, I know we said because Justin had apparently offered to pay part of it or all of it out of the activity fund, but they've covered um a lot of things including helmets for the >> out of that which >> we really we meaning the school really probably should have covered that part. >> So, I have no problem with it, but I'm just curious. So, where do we put it? So, we have a surplus in our just general um athletic supply budget. >> Okay, perfect. >> So, I'm planning to take it up. Always just be quiet when there's all right. So, any concerns or questions or anything? Otherwise, we need a motion to
016approve the for football sled purchase. And this one is from Harrison Sales. It looks like a motion for that. >> I can make the motion. >> Motion by Rich, second by Ashley. All in favor signify by saying I. I. I. Opposed. And the last one of those sort of items, the bleachers I br again we looked at this. >> I think we did talk about it. Um it's the repairs um required for I think all the bleachers. It's the elementary as well. And then getting the ones on stage up to code or not stage >> up in the balcony getting them all >> codewise for handrail or gap in the rails and handrails in the sides and everything like that. So >> I think we're just again waiting to make sure we were comparing apples
017to apples with what the bids were and what they were going to going to do. So and they did that. So I think when you get this >> premier is the uh as soon as they can get around. Yeah. Yeah. >> And I see there's a total at the bottom and then there's 16 353 written. Is the 16 353 what it is because of that cost? Maybe >> I thought 11 added it up to 16. >> Oh, because he took out that 90. >> Yeah, I just noticed that too up at the top. >> So it would be the 16 353. >> Yep. Troy will do that 94. Pardon me. All right. So, a motion to approve the bleacher repair bid from BR Bleachers $163. >> No, I think Premier is >> Oh, sorry. >>
018Yeah, it's the only one we got. >> It's the only one in the packet, but I know there was something else. That's what Troy Pause. >> Troy told me this morning there was another one, so I don't know if he didn't send it. Um, >> do you have a copy? >> I do not have a copy right here right now. No, I thought he had sent that to you. Mara >> might have been last month. It's just the one going to the board. I understood >> I I we met this morning on it and he said it was premier and he sent it. So, can you double check quick and see because I thought I remember saying it was 11,000 and some from the one they had as the update >> I did have a
019question on here. It does say two shot clocks. Is that what I think it is or is that something else? >> Where are we at here? >> Oh, good. I can see it. >> Kind of pass. >> I see. Furnish and install the last thing in the gated part there. furnish and install shot clocks to two main basketball court basketball back stops. So that would only be up in the high school jump. So is this an anticipation that may WA is going to >> they want it past >> but if schools don't have shot clocks they'll be less likely to have to do it >> correct because yeah it hasn't passed yet. So, >> and it's not like, oh, but we're doing other work on the back stops anyway. So, is this one of those
020where this would be the cheapest time to do it anyway because we're already up there working a new or something. >> I don't >> because it also says furnish and install. Oh, >> that one wasn't checked though. That I mean that's it's not checked. >> It's not checked. >> It's not. Yeah, it's just the ones that are checked. Still a good question. >> But yeah, that's what it would be if we would have to go that route. >> Wait, thanks for necessarily to go on, but cease contract not to start voting right now, but did you guys decide on go ahead going ahead with magic schools? I said what? >> And so that's what the additional is. >> Um it is as you can note on the bottom of the contracted for 2526 different quite
021a bit more for 2627 but that's for the vision that we have to provide students. But yeah, the only addition then is the um magic school. >> That would be kind of in the middle of the page on the first page. Um yeah, >> that's what I thought it was 3K. So, and having he knows that >> Yep. I talked to Lisa and then Jamie sent me um an email kind of specific to Magic School and then having two AI sessions at this. >> All right. So now we want to look at this Earl have used. Okay. There it is in the middle of the second page. still finding them. Oh, I missed one here. Two. Five. Three. Four. Five. 9. Five. Six. Those five numbers are all there. It is. Matthew 11 560. >>
022It's definitely cheaper, but >> yeah, >> I don't know anything about understand exactly what they're doing and if they're doing the same thing. Troy seems >> Yeah. In my conversation with Troy this morning, he felt everything was going to be the same and felt comfortable with it and felt that Premiere was the one way to go. Yeah. You gota wait for >> Yeah. No, I I got 1156. I thought >> Yeah. I don't know if anybody has anything >> but >> different or Earl or anything else. >> We haven't actually worked with either of these companies, right? >> No. No. I think BR is the one we had before. >> Okay. >> Uh, so were we missing gussets on these that weren't ever there originally or they've been broke off? I see that replace missing
023gussets in rows two and four. And I just I mean they're taking way of reads. I mean they're going to do a thorough job of going through everything by looks because they are >> Did they actually come on site and inspect everything? I mean they would have had to. Yeah, I guess if they since they're missing the net, I would guess they would. >> Yeah. >> That's for sure. >> I don't know if anybody has any different thoughts, but yeah, I think Troy met with them both and that's he felt comfortable >> that part of his 115 >> 115 and that's what Troy recommends. I guess >> $5,000 >> you've got any red flags jumping. >> No, just I mean looking at it, it's looks good. I mean, >> well, they provided the details. That's
024>> I mean, yeah, it's real good detail. And this one over here. >> Exactly. >> I mean, it's more of a detail than this one says, well, we're going to do this and this is what we're going to do to replace this damaged boards and service and that. So, I mean, install backboards and anti-clipips and they don't say anything about this one here is talking about uh jacking it to get everything to square up and replace gussets and everything. So, I think it's worth the worth worth the I mean, we're saving money, but I think it's worth giving them a chance to do it because just looking at all they're going to do to it and >> looks like they're going to do a thorough job in that. Yes. >> So, I'm not sure where
025we're at in the process of motions and everything. Did we have a motion or not? >> No. >> Okay, good. >> Make a motion for Premier Bleacher Repair to execute the gym repairs at a cost $11,560. >> All right, we have a second for that motion. >> I'll second it. >> All right, thanks Earl. Okay. So, motion by Rich, second by Early to accept the bid from Premier Bleacher Repair for 1156. All in favor signify by saying I >> I guarantee it work for a year. So, I mean, >> yeah, I thought I mean I don't know if the other day did more, but August. >> All right. So, that motion pass. Um, just one note, Mara, this should probably go in the packet. Okay. >> She's quick. She's got a D. So, okay. So,
026now we'll move on to the CISA while we're there. And the only change is the addition of the magic schools AI there. program, whatever you want to call it. Is that correct? >> Yep. >> And that isn't included in Isl? >> Yeah, it should be because it's in Oh, no, it's not on here yet because it's not there. >> This is the new contract they sent me. >> Oh, they sent you a new one. Okay. It's funny though that they don't have it over written. They don't have it over in the contracted. It's in the price list, but it's not in the contracted. Let's see. It's for this year, but next year. >> Yeah. >> This is what she sent me. >> Okay. >> But that last column is blank, right? >> Yeah. >> For
027the AI. >> Oh, so it just got put on >> Well, it looks like they didn't change it. If they sent you a new one, they didn't change it. So I'd be surprised if it's included in the total because I actually zero right >> cuz the vision thing went up so much that that accounted for huge part of our >> So as long as we just understand that it's 3,000 more >> than what we had approved back in April I think. Yeah, it was April. Thank you. It is. I guess I didn't go back and actually look at the even if it is 3,000 extra on top of the 204 which was already a $24,000 increase. that right about 18 of and this is actually from what I hear from Jamie at CSA 3 kind
028of a really a great great program for schools it's a closed system which I can't explain what it is these people can do it better than me but Um, that's what you basically have to have if you're going to especially if you're going to have students working on it. But and do we get some training with that too then? >> Yeah. >> On-site training. Yeah. No, that's what I thought. >> So, Courtney will break it into four payments as part of your quarterly bills. Okay. included in your regular scheduled invoices and then they pay magic school. Yeah, it's not included in there because I can add up 21. So, okay. So, we're gonna basically approve the >> through the magic school >> the addition of magic schools AI through the SISA contract that was previously
029approved back in April. Yeah. As simple as that. >> Questions, comments? Anybody want Kim or either of those guys to talk more about Magic School? All I know is a lot of the schools in the SISA have already jumped on it. >> Yeah. and he put forth a lot of effort I think to negotiate and um AI is going to be a part of school districts and so giving them an opportunity to use a program that's actually closed and is going to protect against a lot of the dangers that AI presents um is really a benefit as we get our feet on the ground and and move forward using AI >> and if I understood it's for staff and students >> yes So, do we have a motion to approve the addition of the magic
030schools AI to our CISA contract? >> I'll make that motion. >> Motion from Earl and second. >> All in favor signify by saying I. >> I. That motion passes. Oh, and then before I forget the district thing, it's just kind of minor chart. >> Yeah. >> Did we already talk this one? I thought or did we? >> We did approve it. >> Okay. We looked in the information. Okay. because I look back too to see that. My only question is and I I probably should have seen this before. The pool rental for private parties or private use in district and out of district is the same. That doesn't seem like how we do things with the pool like it's always free to it's free not free in this case we're charging but the charges are
031more out of district than in district. I know we went we've already changed this at least once since started. We've had a couple of versions of it thinking it was those per hour charge before and now it's kind of vague in that if it's $100 for what you get it for all day. You get it a half day. I guess we'll let people figure out what 100 means. $100 means what do you get? I don't know how much more that's going to be by the time you pay a place be there three or four hours. By the time you pay two lifeguards, what's $100? I mean, >> does that even covering the utilities and the janitorial? >> I mean, there was an hourly rate of it at some point. >> That's what >> we used
032to >> there used to be, >> but then there was the complaint about that ending up too expensive. Yeah, I think this one has been what it is since >> for anything >> change. >> It has a slash hour there. Yeah. >> Well, $100 includes two Well, no. >> No, it says it's $100 and that includes two lifeguards, but I didn't know what the slash hour meant. It doesn't really say you're paying $100 now because it wasn't I don't even think it was $100 when we had the per hour charge under it seemed like it was like 75 but yeah that's one something specific I don't know why that's so >> could just clarify that with Jess >> well especially before we distribute this publicly >> right >> what do you get for your $100
033and if if you're in district 100 then I I don't know that we'd get any requests from out of district and I don't want to treat open enrolled kids families as out of district. So >> we h we haven't they've been >> good but uh you know if in district's paying 100 and that's going to barely cover two lifeguards depending on what you set for a time limit then at least charge 200 or whatever some some higher figure if they're out of district. I don't know unless we're I don't see how we're going to use parties at the pool as to recruit open enroll students. I don't think that's really kind of can can be >> we could just take it back to Jess and see her thought and then >> ask what >> you
034know this is what it was. It was >> even changed. I don't think it's changed. This is how I think >> I just don't remember. I don't know why that struck me. I think that's been written like that since when Anna wrote things up from before and we cuz I remember we had a big PowerPoint discussion on things and went through and everything. So I I think that's is what it is, but it could definitely be clarified and spelled out better. Um so we could do that and bring it back next month. I mean as long as >> Is that okay? I mean >> you know >> well that's July I guess that would be okay. >> Show my ignorance. So So in district you're not paying anything. Forget about parties. I'm talking about above.
035So family pass, adult pass, student pass. This is not district >> in district not. >> So nothing zero. We talked about it because originally with the, you know, before when we had the the big pool that I was always told was part of the from the Griffins was the stipulation they're in district history for district members who weren't paying the taxes to cover the rest of the operation and stuff and it was Griffin's gift that that would be and then the discussion when the new pool came in was well do we keep that up because we don't necessarily have to be bound by that at this. >> So you got a good point, Rich. >> Well, no. I was just more I mean if there's a ratio between >> indistrict and out district for passes
036and our stuff just have the same ratio for parties. But >> but it's hard to have a ratio with zero to whatever, right? >> So in my head I just doubled it. But you know, I don't think if somebody really wants to come to this, >> you know, plus the other, you know, >> well and I guess it may be good to know. I mean, how many parties are have we? >> So, we have to find out. >> I don't know. I don't >> I haven't heard any complaints, so nobody I mean, at least >> Well, no, they're not going to complain paying $100 to stay and then >> But yeah, we could certainly follow up and find out and see. >> Why don't we just do that if that's okay? As long as you
037don't have to have Do you have to have the rest of this approved to >> like go ahead with the lunch price things and stuff before the next >> do that in July too? >> Yeah, I think so. We're still waiting on milk anyway after the >> That's true. >> Right. So any problem with from anybody want to just say let's bring this back next month. >> Yeah, just please specifically ask. I mean, because I read it $100 with two lifeguards per hour >> and I didn't read it that way. That's >> So, I mean, so it' be good to know what are we doing now? >> Yeah. >> Spelling out better. >> Yeah. So, the old one in 2022 says pool rental for for private parties is $75 plus the cost of lifeguards. >>
038And is it 75 or 75 per hour? >> It doesn't It doesn't even say that, but it says lifeguard. Well, okay. Here it You know what? must be per hour because here it says lifeguard hourly wage is $12 per hour and this is of course remember in 2022. So the cost of lifeguards are charging hourly. >> Well it's not the 75 in addition every hour. >> $100 plus the lifeguards for every hour be worded better. >> Yeah. But now we're including the life. So, >> well, that's where it's got to get separated out, >> right? And you got to figure out how many hours the part it is. >> Well, if you got a two-hour party, you pay two lifeguards and there we haven't had any problem with it yet, but it does seem big
039enough. >> Yeah. So, you do. >> All right. We want to maybe make a motion to table it. >> I did make a motion table this one and seconded by Rich. All in favor of approvaling this item for next month. >> That'll go on the action agenda. >> Yeah, I think we can put it right into action. All right. Motion passed then. Now that's the end of the action. Soformational things. We are on G5. >> So I took your guys's back from last year about how hard and it is to look at the high risk low risk and figure out which is fit and also to look at it historically to see how it comes across. So what I did was since I had the historical data from them from kindergarten through fifth grade is
040I took that chart and I used handy dandy AI and I stuck it in AI and he gave me a chart that I would still be trying to make out on my own. Now it also gives you that feedback stuff. But if you'll notice that when I send it to Mara I I mean I look through that but I think you can kind of ignore it because it just tells you what's there. So the first graphs are map and the top graph is fifth grade, fourth grade, third grade, second grade, first grade. And then it's fall, winter, spring, fall, winter, spring, fall, winter, spring. If if Aaron can't see this, but it's too small, but it's kindergarten, fall, first grade, second grade, third grade, fourth grade, fifth grade. What I and I sent this to
041the staff after I played around with it and got everything done this spring. Um, you notice there's a from the end of first grade when we start in second grade, there's always kind of a spike. There's kind of a spike in red. You can kind of even see that with the kindergarteners. There's a few spikes here and there. Our math on FastBridge is pretty good. You know, when you look across fifth grade and fourth grade, especially third grade, you seem to start there's always I think part of the reason they score so high at the beginning is Fastbridge doesn't ask them for very much in the fall and kindergarten. They can count to five. They are where they're supposed to be. And we're working on stuff in math and kindergarten and and the whole elementary
042to kind of take away that little dip there at the beginning. But the one that I took the most out of was ma or reading. And if you look at reading in fifth grade, fourth grade, third grade, second grade, we have it seems like every year at beginning middle of first grade, we start to have a spike in the red, which is the high-risisk kids. And they and we're working on that and I think that the UFI is going to change that. At least that's my hope. But if you look at fifth by the time they get to fifth grade, our green kids, our lowrisisk kids are really, really good and our high-risisk kids went down. And if you look at fourth grade, it's the same thing. If you look at third grade, yep, there's
043a spike of red and green goes the wrong way and now they've switched and I think they're on the right direction. When you go to second grade, that's that class that's smaller. It's the same thing, but the red's going down, the green. Yeah, they met, but I'm not overly worried about them. And when you go to first grade and kindergarten, that same thing happened in first grade where they spiked. We figured out why we did that working with Jim this fall because they also did that in Ames Web where that first grade all of a sudden we had a bunch of kids at high risk. And what we figured out was is we put so much energy into the UFly and making sure that they have their basic phonics skills that we just didn't give
044them enough time to read. So their mistakes in first grade and I do the progress monitoring isn't because they can't sound out words. They're just really really slow at it because we haven't given them enough chance just to work on fluency. So they're not reading words wrong. They're not it's not even their errors are very very minimal. They're just really really slow. So when they're say when they're reading cat they're going at cat or uh and instead of as they get faster the cat ran and when we did the as web testing I was going to talk about that when we do the elementary report and this was done we did the fats bridge. It's not at the end of the year. It's kind of the last couple weeks, middle of April, because if we
045get too far to the end of May, then they're not that wouldn't go very well either. But all the kids that and those first graders that had got personal reading plans, if they would have if we would have tested them at the end of May, they made enough progress, they wouldn't have got them. And I think the same thing if we would have done this three weeks later after we made those changes that green would have been higher and the red would have been lower. So yeah, I'm not I'm not happy about it, but we have a bunch of teachers that sat down and figured out and with the help of Jim from CISA exactly what's going wrong and where it's at. So, and yesterday we met with Jim for some writing stuff we're going
046to try. And then we spent the afternoon looking at things that we do instructionally that they want to change for this year to try to change that in kindergarten. So, I was with Amy and Heidi and they said the same thing. They're we're tweaking some stuff, taking some stuff out to focus on um the same thing in kindergarten because that's what Amy said. She's like, they're just not fast enough. And we're going to try some fluency things already with the kindergarteners next year. that hopefully will help them will speed that up. So when you look at the graphs, it's not in second and third grade when they take off that we can start doing that in first grade. >> Oh, I like the graphs. I mean, and that's that. So when you look at like
047the fifth graders, you're looking at that same group theoretically. That's >> all the way through. That's the same kids. >> Y as opposed to the other ones, which didn't make a lot of sense to compare, especially in a small school, you know. >> Yeah. And this is the, you know, and that's the fifth graders that you can see. Yep. They that that red spiked. You look at the fourth graders >> and so fourth grade at the end is what you want to see, right? We got our >> line going back up. >> I want the red on the bottom and the green at the top. >> So I I thought Yeah, I thought AI worked good for this. I thought they gave a gave a good representation of >> historically over was the map the
048first one. >> The first ones are the map >> first. what I thought and then I notic and there's always looks fall of second grade there's a spike there was for fifth grade there was for fourth grade coming off the summer more addition there's a little spike in kindergarten but hopefully that shows you and I mean you can read that stuff some of it when you copy and paste it doesn't match so you get a bunch of dollar sign right arrow dollar sign and I sorry I didn't look at back post and I sent it tomorrow that's kind of what it looks like I think we're a year away from looking like I want it to look like when they come out of kindergarten to first and second grade. I think the stuff we're doing
049is the right stuff. Jim, who's worked with Lancaster and Brad who's at Lancaster, he said, he goes, "It's going to take you three years to get what you want." He said, "It's not going to happen overnight." Which with my amount of patience, hard to live with, but lower elementary. >> I would just like it to be two years ago, but I think I'm looking at fourth. If we can get every grade to look like fifth grade and fourth grade at the end, we did something because the stuff that they're doing in kindergarten and first grade and second grade is setting the foundation to make to get them where they need to be. And fifth grade did great on there. They did really really well on FastBridge. Or not Fastbridge, sorry. We got We could look
050at the forward stuff. I don't know if we're supposed to share that, but I was pretty happy with fifth grade. They made a really big jump. So >> good. I can try to I mean I can any questions talk about it all day but >> I appreciate the charts >> it's easier to see I mean >> you can see exactly what's going on very hungry there. Thanks, Andy. >> Budget. >> Other questions at all? Ready to move on to Oh, our favorite topic. Preliminary budget. Very preliminary at this point. Yeah, severity preliminary because there's so many assumptions like we don't really know what we're actually getting for revenue at this point. We don't know what we're getting for equalization. So there a lot of assumptions as we get further into the year and closer to
051that October 15 date. It'll eventually get more accurate, but I mean my biggest day of the year is October 15th because that's whenever when what we're getting for equalization aid and how all all of that's playing into it. So right now very preliminary a lot of assumptions but we will start rolling through it. Um so the 2627 budget is in the far right column. Um we're going to start with fund 10. This is our general fund. This is where a vast majority of all of our revenues and expenses come in and out of. Um I am presenting a balance budget. So that top portion there it just shows that our fund balance is going to remain the same. Um working down we'll start with the revenue. So that 100 transfers in. This is for an
052indirect cost that we can claim for idea funds. We always budget for this. I typically don't claim any indirect funds because we always have enough actual expenses in our idea funds to cover the full grant that we're awarded. >> I'm sorry, you lost me. Where's that you're looking at? >> That's $4,000. >> Oh, that middle thing there that I totally missed. Okay. >> Yes. >> Um and then under that >> jump to the big number. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that big scary number. >> Yes, that big scary number, that 3.2 million, that's what our projected taxes are going to be for the upcoming year. Um, and that increase by $62,000, almost 63, it's $400,000 of that is the new um money in our referendum. And then the other $200,000 is the projected decrease in equalization
053aid that we're getting. Um, a big reason that our equalization keeps dropping every year is our property value is increasing at such a high rate compared to the state level that it's making us look very rich because they just look at property value instead of >> and if you were at last year's annual meeting, remember that's what Allison couldn't be there that bear told us. >> Richard is not. >> Yeah. Yes. Which >> on paper? >> Yeah. She and then I said I said well you know I we don't exactly feel that way. Can you explain that? That's exactly what she said. >> Okay. Because that was my question was where was the extra coming from? And the extra is not really coming from anybody. The extra is coming from our taxpayers because the state
054isn't going to fund the equalization aid and our revenue limit is whatever it's going to be isn't changing significantly. So more of that amount is going to be pushed to the taxpayer. And that's what >> Yeah. because very flawed. >> They're going to think we're trying to spend more money. Yeah. But we're not spending more money. We're just not getting we're losing. >> Government doesn't have any money. >> And what about that? >> Explain that again. Two billion one else. >> Somebody else. >> Yeah. and and that's going to be a message from now until there's some type of change, but I I don't see that messaging changing anytime in the near future. But this is where we're at. We can always be hopeful looking for the change, but for Cornell, this is what I'm
055projecting. But again, this is a projection. I don't even have um any type of numbers from DPI yet. So, this could be completely wrong and and maybe we aren't going to decrease, but to be conservative, that's that's what I'm going with. That's what we need to do. Yeah. >> Um then moving down, um I measured it, um $1,000 in the non- capital sales. That's if we were to sell anything small, it would go in there. Um >> like that mower thing. >> Yeah. Anything small like that. Um then moving down to the school activity income. Um so this is athletic revenue. So when we host meets here, basketball games, things like that, we charge the schools that are coming a fee to come in. Also, if we ever host a WIAA event like conference, regionals,
056things like that, we have to charge an admission fee. Um, Brandon, most of that money gets paid back to WIAA. Um, but that's that's what that's for. Then moving down that $15,000, that is interest that I'm projecting to get on our bank accounts. Um, I'm keeping it the same as this year. So far in 2425, we have exceeded that $50,000, but you never know what interest rates are going to do. So, and that might change just be a little more conservative um going forward. And then that $3,100 for other revenue um is for our Chromebook insurance that students have the option to buy for their Chromebook protection if they were to break it, things like that. Um that's where we're at with that question. Why did that one go down? Um, I've just seen a
057decrease in use and I know it's changing next year and I had gotten that email from Aaron after I had done this. So, it's going to be adjusted when it comes closer. Um, and by the October meeting, we'll actually have some revenue coming in because a lot of it gets paid right away in September. So, then I can really fine-tune it a little more to know it'll be a little more accurate. But just to kind of stay on the conservative side with this, I don't want to don't want to say we're going to have a big influx and yeah, be very wrong. Um, then moving down, our next big number is 1 point uh 1.3 million. This is a bulk of our open enrollment in revenue yet. So, right now kind of preliminary numbers and
058Marlin might be able to help with this. It still looks like we are going to be net positive for open enrollment by quite a >> it was over 850,000 for past year. >> Yeah. So, and I kind of kept that similar for 2627. Now, again, as we get closer to September and actually see who shows up on the first day, that one's numbers are going to change again. Um, but this is just what I'm estimating for now is that revenue is going to stay the same. That's open enrollment in and that's pretty much that whole amount. >> Yeah. There's a couple >> play that. Yeah. >> Other little things, but over a million dollars of it is open enrollment in revenue. >> Okay. >> Um then moving down to our intermediate sources, that $9,000 that
059is all Carl Perkins funds. Um Carl Perkins goes to our CTE area. So, a ed, teched, business ed, um Casey Goodrich kind of handles that and she does a really good job with splitting it up between the needs of those different areas and actually that those that team really works well together and they kind of take turns of okay, who needs what or I got a lot of it last year, someone else can take more of it this year. So, and again, this is an estimate because we haven't gotten any actual numbers with what we're receiving for grants next year. Um, but in the past it's it's gone up a little bit every year. So I'm thinking that we're going to get close to that $10,000 next year. Then moving down into state sources. So
060that first area is categorical aids. So this is um a category made up of a bunch of little um aids that we get. Part of it is our per pupil transportation aid. Um this is different than high cost pupil transportation aid. This is just for every pupil that we transport, we get a certain dollar amount based on how many miles away they live from the school. Um, so that comes in with that one. Our common school funds, which is our library aid is part of that. Um, actually the common school funds, the library aid is a is a majority of it. Then moving down to our state aid general. This is our equalization aid. So this is what I'm projecting is going to decrease by a couple hundred,000. I'm really hoping I'm wrong on this.
061and it goes the other way. But for now, this is kind of where the sources are pointing that we're going to go. So, that's where what I'm going with for now. Um, then moving down that $10,800. This is again some other little grants. Um, part of that is our CTE grant. Um, so Mr. Kings has a big part of this. Um, he's certified to he's certified to teach students to get certified in other areas, whether it be CNA. He has um like a Snap-On certification. So, any anyone that completes the certification, they get this I get the certificate sent to me and at the end of every year, I upload all of the graduating seniors that have completed it. And then, um, you don't really know how much you're actually getting per student. It's up
062to $1,000. This year, I think it actually worked out to like $500 per certificate that was sent in. Um, and part of that is because they have a pot of money and they're they project how many kids are going to do it, but then at the end if there's more than what they projected, you get a lower rated amount. Um, we have had quite a few kids go through that and I think it's it's really helped a lot of them. >> But are we still going to be able to do that? This is the one, isn't this the one where we had to get the tools and stuff? Yes. And I know that that's >> we're going to have trouble with that. >> Well, >> to get it worked out again. >> This as far
063as we know the program will continue. And so did you the 500 is that from this year or is that from last year? >> That would have been our 2025 graduates. >> Okay. Cuz our hope was that this year that amount was going to be a lot more because the number of people weren't going to pay to do all the stuff to do it. So, we won't know that until we get it, but there were a number of schools that did not pay to do the certification and have them go, which means a lot less kids in that element. So, I guess we'll have to see where it is. But I guess we don't know anything different that it will change. >> But for the amount we get, we can't invest in some of the
064things we can't afford to it doesn't make sense for us to invest the amount of money you need for those. No, but it it did make sense to to have crings trained and do that. But we still were ahead in that reg. Yeah. Yeah. So >> as more information comes out on that, I can adjust this so it aligns more with what's actually >> and it's not a huge amount anyway. So >> no, no, it's not. >> Um then moving down that $150,000, this is our AGR grant that we get to help pay for some supplies to help with that area. Um, moving down the $5,000. So, these are our built payments or payment in lie of taxes. So, any land that's like government landowned or nonprofits, that's our land. >> Yeah. Yep. That's the
065money that we get from them. Um, not a ton, but a little bit. Every little bit helps. Um, then moving down to other revenues, that 539,000. So, this is a bunch of different aids that we get at the state level. Part of that is our sparity aid. So, since we have less than 1,000 pupils enrolled in our district and our pupil per square mile is less than 10, we get this additional aid. Um, we also get a per pupil aid. This is just an additional aid that's goes to school and it's based on our three-year average enrollment. Um, and then this is also where our high-cost transportation aid comes in. Um, we have done really well with that in the past. We don't find out what we're getting until June 15th. So, I will know
066next week what we're getting for high cost transportation aid this year. Um, we always hope that we do well and I know purchasing a bus every year really helps with that. Um, so we'll we'll wait and see what that comes back at. Um, then moving down into our federal sources. So, the $50,000 is um contains our title two, title four, and title five grant. Uh those different grants help for recruiting, training, and preparing teachers for um teaching in the classroom, helping with any achievement grants. And then title five is to help needs in rural schools. So we do we are very fortunate for that one because not everyone gets it. Um and title five is a fairly flexible grant. We can kind of use it wherever is needed to help. Then moving down, the $300,000
067is for our title one grant. And a lot of the title one grant goes to help with um reading materials. Um it helps our or it supports our reading specialist teacher. Um goes to there. Then moving down the $20,000. Um so we have Medicaid eligible students, but we never get all of our payments in the same year that the expenses incur. So whenever we get payments from a prior year, it has to go into fund 10, even though it's fun 27 expenses. Um, but there's always a lag with that. I did decrease this budget a little bit because they are changing what is a Medicaid eligible expense and it is not going to be beneficial for us. >> It's not going to be beneficial for anybody. >> No. No. It's Yeah. I think >> especially
068we're districts with >> High needs. Yeah. >> Yeah. Yes. So, >> even though we're rich in property. >> Yes. Yes. We're actually we're we're a very rich district when you look at that one piece of information, but big picture tells a different story. Um so then moving down to our other financing sources, that $20,000 that's for our bus sale. Um we have had very good luck with our bus sales over the past couple years. So I did jump that budget quite a bit. Um, talking with Jeff, we he is planning to take a bus to auction in July and it should be sold by August, end of August. Um, he says that's kind of the sweet spot to take them because at that time schools are kind of looking for what are their needs for
069the next school year and going with the with the surplus auction that he goes through. Um, that's really good. And and if you ever get to that point where you wanted to do something like with that uh whatever it was that we're going to trade in, go get Jeff to show whoever how to use that Wisconsin surplus thing because all the bus things you can't be >> Oh yeah. >> And then you don't have it locally with somebody. >> Um Yes. So then moving on down into our other revenues area. So that 10,500 this is our property and liability insurance dividends. we always get a little bit back if we have a good year. Um we've we've held true to that. Knock on wood. We're hoping it stays true for next year. Um but that's
070where that comes in. And then that $25,700. So with the pecards that we have since it's a program that was set up through WPO, if you're in this program and use the PE cards, depending on how much you spend, you get a rebate back. So we've had good luck with that rebate in the past. We typically get it mid to late June. So that payment should be coming in soon. Um and then we also have -ate that um we get revenue from. And is just something that we can go into and it helps with payments for our internet access. Um and I think we have gotten a couple of those payments for this year. Um it's been over $20,000 if I'm remembering correctly. Yep. Um, so it's worked out well for us there. And then
071the $1,000 is just miscellaneous sales. So if we were to sell anything small, it kind of goes in there. It typically isn't a big category of revenue for us, but every once in a while, you just have a random item sold. >> That is all that I have for revenues. So then moving on to our expenses, that top section of instruction, um the totals $3.7 million. This includes all of our elementary, middle school, high school, um our vocational, teaching staff. It includes their salaries, benefits, supplies for their classroom. Um is all encompassed in that 3.7 million. >> So it's their salaries, benefits, is insurance in there, too. Yep. Salary, benefits, classroom supplies, >> insurance is the big thing though that is for insurance is too. >> Yep. Yep. For for the teaching staff. >> Right.
072Right. Right. >> And then moving down into our support staff areas. This includes things like um the guidance counselor, nurse, psychologist, um athletic director, superintendent, principal, secretaries, custodians, bookkeepers, bus drivers. It's it's all that support staff area. That again includes the salaries, the benefits, um any supplies that each of those areas would need is all encompassed in that next section. Um it is housed in there as well. Um but that is what that includes. Then moving down into non-program transactions. So I want to go over that $410,000 inner fund transfer that $918,000. So that is transfers that we have to make to other funds to get them to balance to zero. Um for 2627 I am projecting an $882,000 transfer to fund 27. Then I'm projecting our fund 50 to not break even. So right
073now I'm projecting a $35,000 transfer to that um because that cannot end with a negative dollar amount >> to which one food service. We got to talk about that. We have something has to be done with that for next year. They had a they went through $100,000 of fun balance last year. $107 balance last year. >> We should have been doing something much more drastic this year. And yeah, this that's got to stop. I mean, I know food prices have gone up, but this is ridiculous. >> Yeah. And so what we Allison looked into and determined like previous we had two part-time. So our previous makeup of food service workers was the food service director, two full-time and a part-time. About three years ago, our part-time person left and another full-time person was hired. So
074then that's a full-time salary and a full benefit. >> I think that just needs to be on the agenda pretty quickly. And since it is hiring and staffing and stuff, put it in I think we can put it in close session because we got to talk about that and performance of person in charge. So we can't keep going like this. I mean it's been a long time since we put money in fund 50. I mean, in fact, you know, be before they they still had $100,000 in fund balance the beginning of last year and for a couple years before that, we put expenses over there for freezers and things that we used to put into fund 10 and not even put there and then we put them there and they still ended up okay. Now,
075I know part of that is pandemic money coming in, but we've got to find a way to pretty much break even. I mean 100,000 107,000 last year the loss comes >> like we talked at the committee meeting I mean you're going to provide the details at some point of why where the 107,000 is increased food costs or personnel or or whatever. >> Okay. >> Just if it's indifferent to we're just being helpful >> and that really shouldn't be totally unheard. That's got to come from unfortunately lot some of that's going to have to come from the person in charge who's doing this. No, completely and and I absolutely agree. We need to have a discussion that >> whatever the discussion is that here's your budget is it executable and then if if food prices and
076that then there's discussions along the line we >> know along >> we understand so but it would be good to know >> right >> I mean it would be just good to know what and not that it has nothing to do with your fault you just know you just know the information >> right >> no I can pull those numbers and plan for the July I don't I don't know where you guys can judge that. I mean, obviously, we're starting the year and it's only so much can handle at once, but we just got to get on top of this one. >> Yeah, absolutely. We'll we'll be ready by July to dig into that >> at least to get started roll. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Well, no, I think we'll talk closer >>
077because it was looking bad at the beginning of the year and then a little more encouraging in March and then it's not. Yeah. Um >> anyway, >> so yes, that's a >> projection for now. Um then moving down that $740,000 um expense that is for our open enrollment out payment and our voucher payment. Again, I'm not going to know what our vouchers are until October 15th this year. They're at 83 either 83 or 85,000. To be on the safe side, I'm projecting that they're going to jump to a h 100,000, but we don't really know until they till DPI says this is what you owe on October 15th. Um, so yeah, hoping hoping it either stays flat or goes down, but budgeting for the worst. Then that $5,000 that is for any WIAA payments that
078we have to make if we host any WIAA events. So that is all that I have for fund 10. Anyone have any questions, concerns? Um, no, then I will move down into the special projects funds. So, this includes fund 21, 23, and 29. Of those three funds, we only use fund 21 and the bulk of that is Griffin funds. Um, so the revenue that we see there, that $150,000, that's all Griffin revenue that we get. Um it's interest that we receive on the trust that's housed at Bank of America. Um that's the only revenue that I'm expecting to get in that area. And then going down that we have the expenses. There is a big jump in expenses. Um, and that is because we had talked and one way that we could save the taxpayers
079money was to pay our pool payment out of our Griffin funds instead of doing an additional levy for it. So, for now, I have it in there. >> The pool payment is already in debt service, right? >> Yes. But we talked with fair just to try and see what would what we could do to help lower the mill rate and they were like this is one >> you got to find somewhere else that doesn't I'm not sure about that. I mean saying it I need an explanation of that one. Yeah service you can levy if we take that somewhere else. We can't levy it there if we're planning to take the money from somewhere else. >> Right. So it >> so that's going to reduce the total amount we can levy and then I don't
080know I think there's some questions that need to be asked. >> Well I mean that's what you said right? So this is an option to lower the mill rate if we wanted to consider. Yes. And we may not want to consider that has an impact on some other things because when you're levying debts, the other reason you keep levying debt service money is the next time you need a referendum, you keep levying that out of debt service so that when that one's paid off, >> you know, there's there's some schools around us that do this perfectly. You know, now we haven't had to do that. We've been lucky, but I don't know. I think we need to think before we decide we're doing that and get some real good advice. Not just a beard definitely
081as one source, but some other practical ones from people that go out there. I'm thinking James maybe. >> Oh yeah. >> Yeah. Yep. And this is just one avenue and and it's still very early. So this budget is going to change, but that was just one option. and I will reach out to um Barrett and Jamie and just get their >> And I'm not quite sure I get why that helps, but I'll think about it and we'll get >> Yeah. But >> it's a it's a scary one. >> Yeah. >> To not levy debt service that's been approved by the voters. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> That went to referendum. They passed a referendum. >> Yeah. and to not levy it might hurt us down the road, >> you know, >> and if if the comfort
082level was to keep it on debt service, that is >> I need to be I need to be educated because it's not something I've ever heard of any district doing. I've heard him finding other ways to keep mill rates down, but never has it been not levying referendum approved debt. >> Yeah. Yep. and and I can get some more information on that and reach out to some other people. Yep. >> Yep. That was just um >> so I need education. That's >> Yeah, just one avenue, but we can come back to that. Um but anyway, that's all that I have for fund 21. Um but then moving down into fund 27, which are which is the special education fund. Um this is a fund that has to end at $0 at the end of the
083year. Um, so you can see that that first line of revenue is that transfer from fund 10 and $882,000. It is a big jump from 2526 that's projected. Um and and part of that is so we were we were told with the state budget that in 2526 we were going to be getting reimbured from the state at a 42% and that in 2627 it should be 45%. Well for 2526 it's coming in at about 38%. Now when I did this budget I did not believe we were going to get 42%. So I budgeted a 39% reimbursement. >> Pretty close. still a little over what we're actually getting, but closer. Um, and I was on a webinar with WBO last week, and there's some people on there that have been business managers for 20, 30 years,
084and they were like, "Yeah, I probably wouldn't go over a 39% reimbursement rate for 26, 27." Um, just to be on the conservative side. And they said, you know, if you're really feeling lucky, you can go 20%. But a lot of people were recommending um kind of kind of stick closer to that 39% area. But another big jump in our 127 transfer. >> Okay. What did you say that one was then? You went with >> uh the 39% reimbursement. Yeah. 39% reimbursement at the state level. Um and that number comes in a little lower. It's a 448,000. That's in 39. >> And that's interesting. It's 39%. But when you're trying to figure out a budget, you also have to guess of what >> Yeah. Yeah. Come up with 39% if you don't know what 100%
085is. >> Yep. >> Um >> Yeah. >> So, it's spec for this year. Are we pursuing any high cost speckhead? >> Yes. We should learn what we're getting on Monday. >> Good. >> Yes. I submitted that claim. I think it was back December. No, January, February area. Um, I know we don't get it right away and everything, but I'm glad you guys did because I've heard that sometimes the submissions, especially the first time, can be tricky. So, >> good. >> Yeah. And and that's what I heard, too. And a lot of people are like, it gets easier every year, like first year's the hardest because you got to figure out the system and and all that stuff. But we did get it submitted and we're just waiting waiting to see what we actually get. >>
086So, what's the threshold that throws you into high cost? Is it >> $30,000? um spend over $30,000 on a student. Um so if any student were to need like a one-on-one aid, that would kind of throw them into that mix. Um the biggest thing if they have a lot of services that are needed to support them, OTP, things like that. Um >> but that one's also only funded some sufficient, right? So get a lot of applications, you get a lower rate back. >> Yeah. Some certain. Yep. Yeah. Some certain. >> I'm sorry. I get it. I probably got it mixed up. Yeah. >> Yeah. How they have it works certain is not certain. That's what I have to keep in my head. Certain is the one that's not certain. >> Yeah. >> Money tough. >>
087And the only the only thing that's sufficient we'll we'll pay it no matter what. We will provide sufficient isures. >> Yeah. Private schools. >> Private school. >> Do you have any I mean when you do the pay work is there like a estimate or is it just you just do the paperwork and then they do whatever and you get a number? Um, so they give an estimate, but when I was at one of my business manager meetings at Tisa, another person that had been doing this for quite a while, she was like, "Yeah, they give you an estimate." And it's never right. They way overestimate on the number that you see at the that last page of the application. I'm like, "Well, that's reassuring, I guess." >> But what was the number? >> Um, even
088though it may be in completely incorrect, >> I think it was around $35,000 that we'd get. Um, >> and how much time did you spend doing all this stuff? I mean, every dollar is important, but I mean, I hope it wasn't like a $100. >> No, no, no, no, no. It was not anywhere near that. I'm going to say it was maybe eight on the high side, maybe. >> So, I mean, it it's definitely worth it in my opinion to take my time and and do this. Um, and like I said, every year it should get easier because you kind of have that foundation built in it. Um, >> when you get real used to it, they will change that, you know. Like when edits these graphs just perfect, they're going to go to a
089different test. >> Yes. >> No, it's taking >> historical. >> We are that. >> Yeah. So, no, I I definitely think it's worth my time to to go in and do it because Yeah. Every penny helps. Yep. >> Um then moving down from that $448,000, we go down to $164,000 and that is our IDVA grant. Um, so that's those are specific grants for speck students. They can help pay for um kind of a vast array of things that the students may need. It's not a huge grant, but but every little penny helps when you're you're doing this. Um, then going down, there is a $10,000 revenue. That is our Medicaid reimbursement. I have decreased that revenue quite a bit from what we're projected to get in 2526. And a big reason for that is they're
090changing one of Medicaid eligible expenses. So thinking we're going to have quite a bit less revenue going forward. Um and maybe they'll they'll have this program for a couple years and switch it back. So it is a little more beneficial, but for now I'm I'm going with a much a big decrease in that revenue. Um and that wraps up the revenue sources for fun 27. Then going down to expenditures. So that instruction that $150,000 that includes all of our paras, our teachers, the supplies that they may need um out of fund 27. Um and then going down to support services that include things like um part of the school psych uh salary comes out of there, part of the guidance counseling comes out of fund 27. um OT, occupational therapy services, physical therapy, any transportation
091that we do for spec all comes out of that source. Um then moving down, um there is a $4,000 expense and this is the indirect cost that we can claim for idea. I budget for it every year and it would go to fund 10. In the past, in the time I've been here, we've never claimed that $4,000 because we already filled the grant expenses with legitimate costs, whether it be for a supply for a kiddo or anything like that. Um, but everything that I've read is it's just best practice to build it into the budget just in case we would to have extra funds. >> Well, or you submit something that doesn't get accepted, so you have no time to spend anything more. So, >> yes. Um then going down that $90,000 expense is for
092our Connection tuition. Um as far as I know, we will have one kiddo going there in the fall just for well for now that could change. >> So is this something you can get the high this 90 at 90? >> Yeah. Yeah. But then this is still early so this could all change when September rolls around. Um, so that is all that I have for fund 27. And then rolling down to debt service for funds 38 and 39. Um, the revenue and expenses look a lot lower this year compared to last year, but that was because we took that full loan payment out from Griffin, but that could be coming back. So >> you took that out in the budget, right? >> Yes. >> This year we paid it out of that. >> Yes. Yes.
093>> Yeah. that. >> Okay. >> But I'll do a little more digging on it and get some opinions from other people that have gone through something like this. Um, if we move it out of here and over to that though, where's the referendum things fit in the levy? Does your referendum payments don't have to fit in the levy? Your other things have to fit or under I'm sorry, the revenue agreement. >> Where does referendum money fit? that goes ab above your revenue limit. So if you take this out and you put it somewhere else, it's got to fit in our we're taking part of our revenue limit to pay this. And then that scares me because then where's the money coming from? >> You know, because we we've got a revenue limit. We've got debt
094service. If you take it out of debt service, then your levy limit goes down, too. I mean, right? or and if not for this year for next >> you don't have to levy it >> right you don't have to levy it so fund >> you don't have to levy it but we have to pay it >> no absolutely so so it would >> else isn't going to get paid >> right it's something else it's yeah I guess that's what I'm saying >> absolutely >> and if there is something else we can cut out >> okay I know why part of why we don't cut it is because if we just cut it then we don't get aid on it next year >> but I think I mean so is is there some point a decision
095has to be made. It seems like this is important enough that the board needs to make a decision to look at that. >> Obviously, we have to look at that and >> get more information on all the angles and get some really experienced administrators to weigh in on pluses and minuses of each. >> Is there a time there's other ones out there that would I just people just don't say annual meeting? Oh, so it's so it's not for Okay. Okay. >> Yep. When we officially >> We've got time, but it's just one of those things. It's a I don't know. Maybe I'm making We'll find out. I'm making a big deal about >> No, it is a big deal. It's just, you know, the public's mad because they're paying. I >> I don't It's a
096way to alleviate it. But >> But I tend to agree with you. I I don't want to add risk >> to the school and other stuff when it's not our mismanagement. It's It's >> Yes. >> state funding. >> Yeah. >> And special ed funding and everything else we can't control. >> Yeah. Well, >> yeah. >> We'll get more. >> There's so much in budget that's not the business manager who's presenting it very nicely and very confidently, but there's so many other >> variables. Um so right now in our debt service fund is just the the bond payment that we make and levied for for what our payment is expected to be. Um but again that once we learn a little bit do a little more research that section could change on debt service. Um then
097moving down to our capital projects funds which is 41 46 48 and 49. Those funds listed we use fund 46. That's our debt service budget. Right now, I'm not budgeting the transfer from fund 10 to 546 at the end of the year. The revenue that you're seeing there is interest that we're gaining off of our bank account. Um, I know for 2526 I budgeted $10,000. We have already surpassed that amount. I think we've gotten about $16,000 in interest income on that fund. Um, and right now that fund is kind of being held for if we need to do the next big expense that I'm seeing is a repair, whether it be section or whole thing. Um, but I know Troy's been working on that and getting quite a few different companies in here to inspect
098it and bid it out and see >> what really needs to be done and was just trying to trying to sell us a project. Um, but that's what I have for fund of 26 and moving down to food service. And I had mentioned earlier, um, budgeting $35,000 transfer, but I will come with more information at the next meeting on what exactly our expenses and revenues are for this section and kind of seeing where can we cut um, and how can we make that budget a little more self-sufficient. >> Where do I see that you're I'm trying to find what you're saying. We're transferring it from 10 to 50. So, it should show up as revenue and 50, right? >> Yes. Um, >> and I don't am >> it. It's part of that $446,000. Um, this
099and and I can change how I'm presenting this. This is the standard format that I get from Bayard and DPI as to how to present your budget and lay it out. But like for fun 50, it doesn't give a lot of detail like what fun 10 does. >> That's what I was expecting to see a separate line for. So, how much did you say you're budgeting for it? >> $35,675. >> Okay. So, you're budgeting $35,000 on top of the n them meeting on top of the nine that they're going to blow through in the first month. >> And I I left that at >> they only serve food nine months a year and they need $35,000. They maybe you know it's get to the point where if we're going to spend Go ahead. >> They
100got summer school too. >> I know it's two weeks >> summer school. >> Yep. There's summer school. Not that they got summer. >> But they don't pay for that, do they? Or do they not have that free lunch program in the summer >> of the reimbursement that I have to submit? Um >> Yeah. Well, oh yeah, that's the revenue. A lot of the revenue is the reimbursement. Yeah. >> Yeah. Actually, right now um 75% of the meals that we serve are either free and reduced and they get reimbursed at that level and it's not the um the cost. Yeah. It's not a paid lunch from the student. It's >> But we need to know that too because it used to be that that amount that was reimbursed covered the act our actual cost of producing
101the meal. Not like you're going to mark it up to sell it, right? >> But it did cover it. So, you know, we're not close to CO. Let's put that because Okay. So, um so then moving down to our community service fund, fund 80. Um most of the revenue and expenses out of fund 80 is our pool. Um this is a fund that we can levy additional money for. Right now, I am not expecting to need that. I did decrease the revenue from 12,000 to 10,000. Um, this is cool fees collected. I realistically did that to be conservative just in case something were to happen and a new hot uh entertainment thing comes in and then people don't want to use the pool anymore. Realistically, I think it'll be over that $10,000 mark. I just
102don't want to say it's going to be more and then have that fund be negative and have to do another fund 10 transfer to make it whole. Um, the expenses that come out of fund 80, it's a lot of like we have some pool supplies. um lifeguard expenses can come out of there. >> They can, but it doesn't look like are we are we actually putting it in there? >> Yes. Some of So, whenever we teach any type of class, so whether it be um water aerobics, um swimming lessons comes out of there, any anything that's open to the community, we can charge those lifeguard expenses out of. But yes, but right now we are expected to end with a positive fund balance. Um, as we finish out 2526 and we get our final numbers,
103then I'll see where that fund balance is ending this year and potentially change what we if we were if we were to need to levy for it. But um, >> and fund 80 is above. >> Yes. Yep. Yeah. So there is fund 80. And then the last box is package and cooperative programming funds. So fund 91, 93, and 99, we don't use those funds. Um, I don't expect that we will need to start using those funds. So all of those are are zeros, but that is all that I have for the budget. I've written down kind of where we need a little more information and plan to bring that back next month. >> Nice. as we're talking through the changes. >> Yeah, >> it won't be the last time you hear it. >> Yeah, this
104was a really good one for a new member to be at. So, all right. Again, thank you my monthly health insurance update. Another fun one. >> Yeah. Um, so the insurance center sent me an updated expense list as of April. Um, April was a high cost month. It was $157,000. That kind of mirrors where it was last year. April was pretty high. Um, there was a little bit of a dip in May and then back high in in June again last year. I'm kind of expecting that to be the same. I'm I'm actually projecting that, you know, May and June will both be high just because it's kind of the it's the end of our plan year and it's the end of the school year. So, it it's easier for our teaching staff to for
105them to get in for appointments, for their dependents to get in for appointments. So, kind of expect those months to be high. Um >> and the run out. >> Yes. And then we have >> got a couple of babies coming in there >> till July. >> Yes. >> Yeah. That'll be on the >> on the right. Yeah. Well, the pre-appoint this one actual birth of the babies will be on their >> Y'll be next year. >> We'll see. We'll see. Depends if they follow Alison's example or >> likely they're going to come in June. >> Um but but no, hopefully everything goes well for them and they supposed to to when they're projected to come. Um, I am expecting that we're going to go over what we had originally projected for budget, >> which was
1061.2. >> Yes. >> And I'm projecting closer to that 1.4 1.5 because >> Okay, >> we're on the same track. I redid my things that I ran by that >> Tyler Insurance Center data guru >> when he said that that method wasn't what they do, but it it should work. And it sounded like he agreed when I said, "Well, my first one was 1.5." He didn't think that would be that high, but I redid him with this much data and the lowest number I got was 1.425 million. The highest was well, the highest was still 1 point. It went back to 1.5, but I'm hoping that doesn't that would mean our we have a lot a lot more run out, but I just remember those babies would do this. So, >> yeah. Yeah. No, I'm
107I'm thinking we're going to be operator that >> because runout just means expenses incurred by June 30th that haven't been build yet. We have to cover monthly. >> Yeah. It's just that >> that's probably going to be 1.4. So my question this year's budget goes to administration mostly. Where are we going to get because on your proposed budget for next year you're assuming that we're not dipping into fund balance this year. Where are we going to come up with 200? We I won't say where. Have you looked at it? Do we have 200,000 somewhere? I mean, and I don't expect you to have it in one place, but have we located close to that anyway in case we need it? >> Yeah. I mean, there there are some accounts like I'm going to take for
108example, um the account that I budget for for a new bus. Um in 2526, I budgeted $180,000. I knew that our new bus was only going to cost $134,000, but I budgeted extra in that budget because I'm like, if an SUV were to implode on itself, then we would have that room to get >> we haven't had that. So, there's an extra about $45,000 there that can help cover this. >> So, we're looking Yeah. >> And we You're confident enough that we've got it that we don't have to think like things that we would normally take care of now just don't do it because we don't have money. Perfect. >> All right. >> No, >> we're not hitting worst case, right? >> No. Okay. >> Unless >> and if we're lucky, it will come in
109slightly under that 1.4. I want to hope we're and we only have a couple years of data to work with. So, you know, can't rely too much, but >> if we have about the same amount of out and the same amount per month. >> Yeah. It might be lucky if that's where it is. Yeah. Hope. >> Yeah. I hopefully that pattern, you know, that they introduced with with self that we've hit our high and now we're coming >> we're coming. >> Yeah. >> And last year our our runout was actually significantly less than it was the first year that we Yeah. So not sure what that means or how that happens but and with only two years. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. That's the kind of thing if you knew it then you'd have to
110ask about Tyler. So is this a normal thing? Anyway, so yeah, that is all I have unless anyone has any question. >> Yeah, nice. Was here for service and I mean staff was >> I mean I thought it was >> No, I mean I think they took notes. Um I think they felt the information was very relevant. It was it was insightful and >> email from that last day well she she does a good job. So >> okay let's move on. Retreat date. >> Yeah. wondering if we want to set a date for this summer and if we're going to look at August or how we if we want to get something in the calendar. >> You have enough people. >> Yeah. >> Enough people now. Do you want to do it during email? >>
111Unless we want to start and get an idea first and then unless you want to start from scratch for email. I is August. I guess we can nail down a month like July or August better. >> When like when are you thinking of doing it like on a Monday or Wednesday? >> Whatever. Yes. >> Because I mean I >> in particular whatever day that would work. Let's >> Yeah. Either either Monday or Friday would work because the worst case I mean I could just fly back for you know the weekend and that and then fly back. >> Well, what works for your schedule? Because I mean Monday or Friday. Is there a certain week that's better? Is August better than July? >> Yeah, mid I mean the second or third week of July. But like
112I said, if it's on a it's on a Monday or Friday, I mean I will unless there's something I don't understand right now. I figured out >> second or third week of July is pretty good in my schedule. Especially Mondays and Fridays are and especially Fridays. There's just not much other things scheduled on Fridays. So, >> I'm sorry. I was saying I thought you were talking August. That's second or third. >> Oh, I'm sorry. I'm >> of August. >> That's perfect. >> Or I mean I'm I'm going to be back here for the definitely back here for the the you know, Fourth of July and the school board meeting on the on the 8th and then probably have Ted back. But but again, if it's Monday or Friday, I'll figure it out. Well, maybe we'll
113end up just keeping that in mind just by unless Ashley got any particular. >> Yeah. Anything for you? August 7th or 10 or August 7th and 14th aren't great, but 3rd and the 10th would be just >> and 10th are good for me. >> I know I can't do the 10th, but I'm just >> third would be fine. Right. I'll put that out. But we'll look at August 3rd. >> We want to get a second one. >> That's a great idea. >> You're going to take be able to take a day off. Hope that there's no big storm the day before. >> It depends what's going on. I mean, we got boss stuff ready for shield coat and got for him last night. too. >> Yeah, that'll be done by >> August 21st would be
114the other. August um 17th we go to Nina >> 17th wouldn't work 21st would be okay >> and a Monday >> that's a Friday >> Friday would probably be better if we >> would probably be better >> preferst I don't seem to be so I didn't say that >> I don't know what's going to happen by August Yeah, right now it's open >> first to pull the other people. >> Okay, so Allison and Isaac really >> and Bob. >> All right. you take care of getting an email out and people will respond get that sent an annual meeting date. Is that just a reminder of what it is? >> I think we're just even identifying that we typically do it the last Wednesday. >> So kind of >> October 28th All right. So, October 28th.
115>> Okay. Superintendent report. >> Okay. Um, well, we ended our year wishing our sincere appreciation and congratulations to Sam Giri and Vicky Olsen as they enter retirement. Um, their years of dedication and service to the students, families, and staff of Kikapoo have made a lasting impact on our district, and we thank them for the many contributions they have made throughout their careers. Safety remains a priority. Um, as we strengthen our emergency preparedness efforts this week, members of our team will participate on Friday in reunification training through the I Love You guys Foundation. and we will meet in Baroqua with other teams. Additionally, we are meeting with Richland County officials to discuss regional safety procedures in that county as well and develop some collaboration opportunities. Um, Richland County superintendent have also um started organizing some regular
116meetings similar to Vernon County um to develop our partnerships and problem solving among our area schools. We're continuing to investigate and research the impact of artificial intelligence and education and the best practices and implementation. So um the advent team will be attending AI training through CISA 3 and then also one led by Gar Larson and Nenah. Um part of our ongoing efforts to meet all of the diverse needs of our students. We've scheduled time to meet with the leadership from LFARGE um to discuss the other collaboration opportunities and explore alternative education programming that may benefit students in both districts. Additionally, this week I'm meeting with the Houston School District to learn more about their development of alternative education programming and innovative approaches to student um engagement at all levels. Um during our end of the
117year in service, Janice was here and spoke on um our health insurance, on wellness, and on strategies for navigating our healthcare environment. Um very practical information and a lot of resources that the staff appreciated as they prepare for the coming year. The final staff meeting of the school year also pro provided an opportunity to celebrate outstanding accomplishments across our district. So, we extended our congratulations to Katherine Miller, who was educator of the year. Jeremy Lee, coach of the year. Landon Harger's top-notch teacher award will be um on air in July, and I'll let you know closer to the date of that they were here. Um Eric Wiggle will be assistant coach for our Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association Allstars um game. In addition to all of these individual achievements, we did also thank the staff for
118um the lives that they are impacting um that weren't, you know, recognized at that level. Uh looking ahead, we're looking forward to our summer school in July and the strong interest in our KBR summer camp. Um, and Mara and I will be meeting meeting with Niola this week and be preparing for our policy meeting next week. And I think that's all I have this evening unless you have any questions. Let's see. >> Oh, I do want to extend. I'm sorry. >> Janet did mention and and probably Aaron will as well, but how impressive that track team was um with their state championships and then record-breaking um performances and then also I understood that Skyler Hansen was our state champ for um >> trap. So, we had a lot of really great representation >> and the
119team was 11th. So, yeah. >> Okay, good. And you were probably going to say that. I'm sorry. >> You You stole all my things. >> Aron Walter Arlland Walter also made the All-Star game for basketball. >> There you go. >> Yes. We have just a lot of really great things that >> for the policy. I mean, so you guys are going to be meet with people and then you'll send out what we need to look at. >> Y >> that's where we get our information from. and we'll have it in July before the >> Y next board meeting and you got your policy meeting scheduled already. >> Yeah, it'll be >> 6 o' >> Yep. >> and and you guys figure out or we can decide if a time I just don't want to go
120past 7. Yeah. >> Um the preliminary forward result the fifth grade did really really well and there'll be a time I'll share what they did. Um Jim was here. Jim the bow tie guy. >> That's what he calls himself. >> Um we're going to implement it's not a program. was more of a process with writing K through five and every K through five teacher was here yesterday and I made a lunch and the first the morning was going over the kind of the process and how it works and Jim is um going to be here at least one day a month to work with everybody in groups to make sure that it is implemented and as effective as we hope it will be. So that was kind of nice to have everybody come in. Uh
121there was good progress on the Ames web on the kids with reading plans in the spring. I wish we could take the test last week of May instead of the second week of April because there's six weeks kids still learn how to read, but the state makes us do it 45 days before the last day of school. So our hands are kind of tied. Um, next week Anna's summer slash reading slashswming um, summer school thing is going to start on Tuesday, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Cassidy Green is helping with her. And then Lucas is going to kind of herd kids from here and there. So curious to see I know it'll be beneficial. I'm curious to see how many parents send their kids. Jeff's got it all set up, so we should be good. And then
122getting ready for summer school. That's all I got. Okay. >> Kim did steal a few of mine. >> Nice job, Kim. >> Uh, I will say again though, just with the state track and trap, I think just the representation for our school with that was pretty amazing. Um, you know, obviously things just don't happen by chance and I think the amount of time and the effort that those kids have put in and being in the weight room and the coaches and all the examples, um, is pretty phenomenal. Um, you know, when you look at all the all the schools and where we were at and three state championship teams and breaking state records and all of them, it's it's pretty impressive. Um, and obviously as far as, you know, trap, too. Um, Skyler being the,
123you know, the best trap shooter in the state, pretty awesome. So, I think just a great thing all around and a big thanks to, um, you know, all the coaches and everybody that helps out and everything with that. So, uh, as Andy said, some of the test results are in. So end of the year is here going through all the reports and stuff and looking at that start to analyze um with that and just to be heads up and we'll have to talk but we will be looking at the Spanish position. So Kim and I've got to talk more on that aspect and uh really the only other thing I have I rarely gone during the school year so I'm going to have a lot of vacation here in the next month month and a
124half. So we'll have some time away. So um other than that those are I think kind of the the big ones. So, >> thank you. >> All right. Well, we do have a close session scheduled tonight, too. So, the next item is >> close session Wisconsin state statute 18.851C, which is >> considering employment promotion, compensation, or performance evaluation data of any public employee over which the governmental body has jurisdiction or exercises responsibility purposes. tonight. Support staff compensation compensation for employee with individual contract. Now there's a comma there but I don't see anything more. So are those the only two items you notice for the agenda because otherwise compensation for employee with individual contracts. >> I think it should be plural employee employees. >> All right. Oh yeah, >> but we're not going to talk teachers
125things. Okay, I'm good with that. I we talked about that possibly this week. >> So anyway, those are the only two things. That's sport staff compensation and compensation. >> We need a motion to go to close. >> Make a motion we convene to close. >> Second it. >> Motion by Earl, second by Rich. And I know we need a roll call for now. >> Rich James. >> Yes. >> Earl Wallace. >> Yes. Ashley White Matthews. >> Yes. >> Okay, >> we need to leave, right? >> If anybody needs a break or anything. >> Yeah. >> Great. We're back in open session. >> Uh motions to be made following close session after consideration the staff compensation for 20 627. One motion, I guess. I'll make a motion that we uh approved as discussed in our discussion.
126>> Support staff compensation and employees with individual >> contracts. Yes, I'll make that move. You want me to second? >> All right, we got a motion and a second. You got the short, I guess. And all in favor? I oppose. and motion to adjurnn. >> I'll make a motion to adjurnn. That sounds good. There is a second. All in favor? >> All right. >> Thanks, guys. Okay. So, lay the lot of
